Senator Dino Melaye, has alleged that National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is actively supporting Senator Smart Adeyemi, who is challenging his electoral victory at the Court of Appeal.

Melaye revealed to journalists in Abuja on Sunday, that he has proof that Tinubu had reached out to the immediate-past Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mohammed Bello Adoke (SAN), to represent Adeyemi.

The Senator, who represents Kogi West Senatorial District, claimed that Adeyemi, had already forwarded details of the suit to Adoke, asking him to look for a judge in the Court of Appeal that would offer assistance.

Melaye said Tinubu is working against him because of his support of the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, during the recently concluded election of presiding officers of the 8th Senate.

He said, “I have no regret supporting Senator Saraki and my electoral victory was ordained by God and not by man. Therefore, no mortal can reverse it. In God I trust, no matter how desperate they might be.

“I am privy to an electronic mail sent to Adoke by an Abuja-based senior editor who is close to Tinubu in which he forwarded the court papers filed by Smart Adeyemi at the tribunal to Adoke.

“In the said e-mail, Adoke was told to look for a trusted justice in the Court of Appeal who would be useful for Smart Adeyemi.”
